NURS 335 - Community Health and Population-Focused Care 3 hours This course discusses the expansion of the nurse’s role into the local, state, and national levels.

The effects of the environment on health are analyzed, and modification of risk factors in aggregates is explored, along with principles of epidemiology. Students will accompany a community health nurse to further understand these concepts. Students will also research a community health concern and address possible solutions to remedy the issue.
